The holiday got the best of me yesterday, and the lag pushed into today. I ran a real easy four miles, the most relaxed run I've had in awhile. The day off yesterday and Sunday probably helped. Though Sunday I was at a big music festival in Seattle and stood most of the day, so my legs were actually pretty tired. 

I've decided to run a 10k in Bellingham next month instead of the half. I don't feel like I'll be prepared to run the half I want to by then, plus I'd like to compare a 10k now to what I ran in April. After that I'll assess where I'm at, and potentially run the Seattle half-marathon in late November. It'll almost definitely be a nasty day, but it'd motivate me to extend the running season.

Well, it was a lousy week of running and a lame run to cap it off. I slogged through these miles today, just couldn't loosen up or get a rhythm or get energized. I think it has something to do with being lazy/busy this week and not getting out much, I'm a little off. Lions Park loop back through Evergreen Park and Manette. It is a beautiful day though, so I'll take that.
